Chapter 222 Secret

Wang Rui had untied the iron lock on Wu Shaoyun's hands and feet, and pulled Wu Shaoyun backwards, and then disappeared underground. The woman waited until the fire pillar was extinguished and flew over the flat ground, and found a hole on the ground, which was a corridor leading to the ground diagonally. She paused, gritted her teeth, and then chased in.

The man was very worried when he saw his companion disappearing as well, and flew over while calling.

Just as Yin Xiang was about to take a step, Su Tang stopped her again and whispered: "Don't be busy."

"If it's too late, the fire will disappear." Wen Xiang said anxiously.

"Do you know what the fire is like? How big is it? How to use it? Is it harmful to yourself? What effect can it release?" Su Tang asked a few questions in one breath.

Wen Xiang was stunned for a moment, and she couldn't answer any of them.

"You don't know, and I don't know, so... we should ask people who understand." Su Tang smiled, then slowly walked forward.

The old man surnamed Gu was still sitting in the corner of the wall, motionless. Su Tang walked to the side of Gu, squatted down slowly, and smiled and said, "Master Gu, your breathing is already messy, isn't it okay? By the way, I have the healing holy dew pill here, I'll give you one?"

While breathing, the old man named Gu, who should have forgotten about things, slowly opened his eyes and looked at Su Tang. His eyes seemed very complicated. He hesitated for a moment and sighed: "Thank you then."

Su Tang turned around and waved, Wen Xiang came over and took out the small porcelain bottle.

Su Tang took the Ninglu Pills and handed the Ninglu Pills to the old man surnamed Gu. The old man surnamed Gu placed the Ninglu Pills in front of his nose, sniffed it gently, revealing his joy, and then carefully put the Ninglu Pills away.

"Don't eat now? Because the situation will be very dangerous? Don't have time to heal?" Su Tang asked.

"Cough..." The old man surnamed Gu coughed.

"Let's start from the beginning." Su Tang said: "Master Gu, why did you come to this leopard forest?"

"I originally wanted to take a walk around and go to Anshui City to find you, Mr. Su, in two days. I didn't expect that I would encounter such a thing." The old man surnamed Gu said.

"Master Gu, it's boring to say this. As the saying goes, you can't get up early without profit. I don't believe that you just want to go there casually." Su Tang said slowly: "A person's ability is always limited. If you want to do big things, you must need some help. It's not a day or two to know you. You should know who I am. At least, I will never do things that forget your righteousness when you see profit."

"Hehe..." The old man surnamed Gu smiled. He would not forget that when he was in danger in the Peach Blossom Land, Su Tang ran away alone.

Su Tang looked at the old man surnamed Gu quietly. His face suddenly changed. A mask with a metallic luster penetrated out of his skin bit by bit and finally formed on his face.

The old man surnamed Gu immediately became stunned. He pointed his trembling finger at Su Tang: "You...you are..."

"It's me." Su Tang said slowly, his mask began to disappear again, revealing his true face.

Su Tang turned his back to everyone, and only Yin Xiang could guess some clues, and the others didn't know what was going on at all.

"No wonder...no wonder..." The old man surnamed Gu smiled bitterly. In the Peach Blossom Land, as soon as Su Tang left, the demonic warrior appeared. It turned out that they were the same person.

"Master Gu, my suggestions are good for you and me." Su Tang said: "Haha... I won't urge you, you can think about it yourself.

"At this point, do I have any choice?" The old man surnamed Gu sighed. Su Tang had already told him such a big secret. If he refused, Su Tang would never let him leave here alive. Ordinary cooperation is not enough. He must hand over an equal-value secret to achieve the effect of mutual restraint. Otherwise, after this cooperation, Su Tang would still kill and silence him.

Su Tang didn't say anything, but just looked at the old man surnamed Gu with a smile. The other party found this place entirely on his own. This also means that the old man surnamed Gu has an extremely special source of information. What the other party once said was definitely not a trip to visit.

"Let's just tell me a short story. I am a member of the Holy Sect." The old man surnamed Gu said slowly.

"Oh?" Su Tang was surprised.

"But I am not a disciple of the Holy Sect. When I was very young, I worked as a servant in Canling Ridge in Pengshan until now." The old man surnamed Gu said, "Do you know where Canling Ridge is?"

"I don't know, this is the first time I heard it." Su Tang said.

"The people living in the Cannon Ridge are all frustrated people." The old man surnamed Gu said: "Some accidentally made mistakes in the fight, suffered heavy damage, lost all his cultivation, and made great mistakes. They were beaten to be a useless person by the Holy See and imprisoned into the Cannon Ridge. If you see them, you would never have imagined that almost every depressed old man had a glorious past."

"And I... have been dealing with them all the time." The old man surnamed Gu continued: "My qualifications are not good, and many of them have guided me, so I took a big detour. I was over 60 years old and was promoted to Grandmaster."

"So many people are guiding you, why do you still take detours?" Su Tangqi said.

"Everyone has a kind of enlightenment. Putting it on themselves is the right way, but... if they concentrate their enlightenment on one person, they will become a useless way." The old man surnamed Gu smiled bitterly: "Today, someone told me that indulging in mountains and rivers and playing in the world can achieve the right result. I did it according to his words. As a result, after a while, someone told me that the gentleman who built a man who strives for self-improvement should be diligent, steadily, and move forward step by step. I followed his instructions and repeated this... naturally nothing will be achieved."

"What they are talking about is their way." The old man surnamed Gu said again: "Understanding one's own way is the real practice. Unfortunately, I only understood this principle when I was nearly sixty years old."

"You came to the Leopard Forest because..." Su Tang said.

"I got the notes of the Lone Shangzu." The old man surnamed Gu said: "Thirty years ago, the Lone Shangzu discovered the Nirbu Temple in the leopard forest and also found the fire. However, when he tried to conquer the fire, he was injured by the fire and his cultivation was greatly damaged. He struggled to return to the Pengshan Holy Sect. His status took a sharp turn and the cave was divided by other great ancestors. Moreover, his personality was a bit introverted. He had few friends, only two or three people came to visit him. As time passed, his relationship faded. In the last few years, he had never been there. In the end, the Lone Shangzu did not want to hand over this secret to his friend who disappointed him, and was unwilling to bring the secret to the grave, so he wrote it in his notes."

"The Gu Shangzu's notes are a little vague. He mentioned the fire, but did not say the specific location, but just left two sentences... Grandma's," the old man surnamed Gu couldn't help but curse: "I really don't understand what he thought. Since he wanted to keep it in the notes, it would be great to say it clearly? Why not be difficult for future generations?"
